Matteblack csl reps from EAS in an 18"

ronnyek · 03-26-2009, 12:14 PM

Just curious if anyone had pics of this, I am strongly considering these wheels, just want to make sure they will look right on the car, not too small, etc.

If the saying I got 99 problems and money isnt one of them... I'd say normally money isnt a problem of mine either... I've just spend like 3500 bucks on my project car already in the last 2 weeks... dropping another 750 on my daily driver is probably pushing it.

I've only got a few pictures, and yes some are 19" CSL wheels but, at least you get a good view of the wheels.

As you might know we're exclusive when it comes to color on the Matte Black/Gunmetal CSL wheels, so feel free to call or send over a PM with any questions

More pictures can be seen in our VMR CSL Showroom thread here:

I hope that helps!

was the top set of pics of the AW for sure 18's? I dont think I want to eff about with 19's... changing wheel/tire/suspension stuff out has never turned out fantastically in my experience... so I'll go with 18s if they still look good.

That car is actually on a 18" non staggered package with 245's all around actually which is pretty darn aggressive so he's doing quite well on that package

ronnyek · 03-26-2009, 05:00 PM

non staggered is like 4 of the back wheels/tires vs smaller fronts and bigger rears?

And does it cause rubbing or problems in turning? Because I want that exact look, that thing is beautiful

Non staggered is basically running the same wheel and tire width all around, so technically you could do the rear wheel all around to say a non staggered package, but in this specific fitment, it was just four fronts instead.

When he stopped by a month ago or so, he said he had no issues with rubbing at all, which was pretty surprising at first, but when I saw it, he was telling the truth. I guess he has some super 135i

twenzel · 03-26-2009, 07:20 PM

Jurrian, Do you think a 18x9.5 +45 245/35/18 would fit up front?

Probably not. But I'll see if I can take my rear wheel off my car and stick it up front of our 1 series when we have some time to see if there is ANY chance you can make it work. But, it doesn't look like there's much room up front for it.

Yea I used the e90 calc... Not going to work.

18mm LESS clearance on the strut side, and the outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 8mm
